nginx rewrite all trailing / to /index.html with proxy pass

Question

Using nginx as a reverse proxy, I'd like to mimic the index directive with proxy_pass. Therefore I'd like nginx to query /index.html instead of /, /sub/index.html instead of /sub/.

What would be the best approach to do this ?

Not sure if it's relevant, but the proxied server does answer HTTP 200 on /, but I'd still like to rewrite it to /index.html.

As the / request leaks some information by listing the directory content, I'd also like to be sure that no one will be capable of accessing it (like doing something like /sub/..).

Thanksies

Just add :

rewrite (.*)/$ $1/index.html last;
rewrite (.*)/..$ $1/../index.html last;

Should works
